This article is about an older version of DF.

Soap is used by dwarves for both personal cleaning and health care.

Soap is made by combining Template:L and Template:L in a Template:L. This command must be entered through the Manager screen.

One unit of tallow plus one unit of lye creates a single bar of soap. With basic ingredients, three dwarfbucks of components create a one dwarfbuck bar. Because of this, soap is no longer a viable export commodity.

Dwarves do not require soap to clean contaminants such as mud and blood from themselves, and instead will use pools of water or brooks. It is possible to construct bath-houses (rooms containing pools of water, a soap stockpile, and perhaps a few nice statues) so dwarves living deep underground need not venture to dangerous cave pools or surface brooks to clean off a little mud or bloodstain. For cleaning wounds and preventing infection after surgery, however, Template:Ls should be kept stocked with a small amount of soap.
